RFKJr claims Lyme disease was created by scientists,which is the closest he’s come to admitting that science exists. Meanwhile, Ötzi the Iceman, who died more than 5.3K years ago, had Lyme disease. Apparently prehistoric humans are part of the conspiracy. Get me off this timeline

Don't look now, but the world has now installed 3TW of solar. Took 10 years to get from 100GW to 1TW. Less than 3 years to get to 2TW. Less than 2 years to get to 3TW. Analysts expect *9TW* by 2036.

Gill: All 100 senators last week passed a non-binding resolution condemning any pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell. They're simultaneously considering confirming the guy who met with her and moved her to a low-security facility as the top cop in the United States. That is so insane to me.
She’ll do this because it would appear to help her re-election cause, all other things notwithstanding, AND because they probably have the votes to confirm even without her vote. She’s a talk out of both sides of her mouth type.

This doesn't get rid of the settlement that establishes the fund. That would require Donald Trump's sign-on, and he made it clear he wants the fund. All this does is rescind the DOJ's order establishing the fund. Trump can still go to court and demand the fund because the settlement remains.
